Tara,
I am trying to collect growth information in some 24 SQL Servers 2008 R2 +, and I wanted to take a look at your zip file, but when I pressed the link from this webpage:
http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/archive/2008/12/16/How-to-track-database-growth-across-multiple-SQL-Server-instances.aspx
You can download the code here.
When I pressed here, I get: Not found from the link:

Please advise, thanks, Carlos Jimenez.

Hey Sir,
The code download is broken in this link
http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/archive/2009/02/25/How-to-refresh-a-SQL-Server-database-automatically.aspx
Sorry about that. The code can be found here: http://tarakizer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2014/11/Refresh.zip
I’ll get Tara to fix her original post.
I was re-directed here for the “Defragmenting/Rebuilding Indexes in SQL Server 2005 and 2008” Stored Procedures, but got the “File not found” error. Please direct me to the where the SP is stored.
